Yes when in Osaka do as the Osakans do. Have a picnic lunch in Expo Park 70 (yes still lots of cherry blossoms) and then go to a game of football at Expo 70 Commemorative Stadium.
For the record lunch was a bento box from Hankyu Department Store (after we couldn’t find the San Diego Curry Bar - yes B and T we need better directions and we didn’t have your number to call).
Also for the record our adopted team won 2-0 against Chizu (I think that is who they were playing.) The supporters were loud and coordinated and no doubt practice their team songs in karaoke bars!
